About Haynsworth Sinkler Boyd, P.A.

Haynsworth Sinkler Boyd may have been started as a solo practice
in 1887 by Harry J. Haynsworth, but the firm soon became a family
practice after Haynsworth's son, and then grandson, joined. In the
past century, the firm has merged twice and gone through several
name changes, the final one in 2001 which resulted in the present
Haynsworth Sinkler Boyd. Since its beginnings in Greensville, South
Carolina, the practice has grown to a full-service law firm with
six offices across North and South Carolina and specializes in the
arenas of law, commerce, technology, insurance, education,
healthcare, government and public relations.

Although Haynsworth Sinkler Boyd represents national clients
such as CVS Corporation, Marriot Corporation and DuPont, it has
also stayed true to its roots, representing the cities of
Charleston, North Charleston and Sumter, South Carolina as well as
community building initiatives like the South Carolina
Jobs-Economic Development Authority.

Seeing Green

Environmental law isn't just one of the firm's practice areas,
preservation and conservation is a key aspect of Haynsworth Sinkler
Boyd's culture. In fact, the firm made a pledge to reduce
consumption and promote conservation across all of its offices by
using energy efficient LCD monitors and energy efficient light
bulbs, setting timers to regulate the lights, heating system, and
cooling systems to reduce energy consumption, among other green
practices.

HSB has earned many accolades for its rigorous practice in the
Carolinas. The firm was named a top business and litigation law
firm in its home of South Carolina by Chambers USA. The
firm's attorneys have also gained a lot of recognition, most
recently when 35 of the firm's lawyers in South Carolina were
singled out by Super Lawyers, with 12 of them as "Rising
Stars." The firm's lawyers are regularly distinguished in the legal
community, especially since many of them have held leadership
positions within state and national organizations as well as
members of the American College of Trial Lawyers and the American
College of Real Estate of Lawyers, among others.
